Requirements - Scene23 - 21-10-2008 10:07 PM

I know people have spoken about this before on this thread - but as exciting as I'am and everyone else here, do you think we are being a lil too over excited about the game. Meaning like when we get official requirements for the game, I think some people here that are very excited are going to be feeling down if it doesn't match with their systems.

What do you think? Will the growing anticpation be a waist for nothing? Especially if you cannot play it.  Sad

You would have thought they would have posted the requirements online by now... how do they expect people to prepare for the game if they give us the requirements 2 weeks before the game is out? {rolleyes}

My mum will never let me upgrade my computer but I'm pretty positive it will work.... I really hope so. Once Sims 1 and 2 are clean off my computer I'll have lots of space. I don't think space will be the issue, I''m more worried about not having the right graphics card or this Direct X nonsense or something silly like that. I think those types of issues can be quickly sorted though, so, yeah... I don't want to be disappointed again this time around. I really want to know the requirements though, so I can make a better estimate!

I agree with you Cassie. I'm hoping by December at least they will give us the legit requirements for the game - only one could hope - but apart of me believes that it might measure up to Spore, and the graphics card required for that game. That is my worry too, I do not mind upgrading my computer, but I rather be prepared for the expenses a head of time, just in case.  Wink

A while back they said the game should work on 'granny computers'... so we'll see... :/


Re: Requirements - ilovearsenal - 22-10-2008 08:46 AM

well i need these system requirements like now. Space isnt the question obviously the graphics card and directx well i have but i am pretty sure they require ten. But if it will work fine on the granny computers they sed so there isnt anything to worry about well for me

Re: Requirements - Happysimsdude - 22-10-2008 08:48 PM

Seriously I have a couple people from this forum that can be a bit too annoying but Im not saying names...


Re: Requirements - lilia2055 - 23-10-2008 09:55 AM

Vista is not the way to go. it still have a lot of bugs and was just brought out on the market too early. u need a really good pc and even then it still messes up. another annoying thing is that it just keeps taking up more and more space. my older brother won a pc with vista on it, with 4 processors and it kept crashing. right now tis better to have XP.


Re: Requirements - Cassie - 23-10-2008 01:01 PM

Not necessarily, I have Vista with no problems, but I understand what you mean. I like the style of Vista better, and the things it can do, but XP was less buggy, it's a shame we can't mix the two together. Tongue
